Description:

the user avahi is specified in avahi.install, but extracting avahi-0.6.24-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz and running "find . -name avahi.install" does not return anything. somehow avahi.install is missing from the package.

creating a package with the files from CVS it says at the end:
==> Tidying install...
-> Compressing man pages...
-> Stripping debugging symbols from binaries and libraries...
-> Removing libtool .la files...
==> Creating package...
-> Generating .PKGINFO file...
-> Adding install script...
-> Compressing package...
==> Leaving fakeroot environment.
==> Finished making: avahi 0.6.24-1 x86_64 (Wed Jan 21 14:29:23 CET 2009)

but after extracting that package, theres still no avahi.install?


Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.

The file is called .INSTALL when it is in the package
